Answer:
About 152 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equal proportions to solve for the $5.99 bag.
We know that 24 pieces = .99, so
Make sure to keep the pieces on top, and the dollars on bottom (or vice versa). If your units are messed up, it will not work.
Cross-multiply.
25(5.99) = .99x
Simplify.
149.75 = .99x
Divide both sides by .99.
x = 151.26 = about 151 pieces of candy
T= 21.79x + 3.99x + 6.89x where t is the total cost and x is the number of brushes/rollers/paint cans you buy. You don't need a different variable for each item because you buy the same amount of each.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/4 - (-1/2) = - 1/4
-2/3 - 5/6 = - 3/2
-1/4 ÷ -3/2
1 5/6 divided by 2 1/8
1) you must change the mixed numbers into improper fractions
2) 1 5/6 is 11/6 and 2 1/8 is 17/8
3) then you must change the operation from division to multiplication
4) then you have to find the recipricol of 17/8 (flip it) and it will be 8/17
5) Finally, you multiply and you will get 88/102: 11/6x8/17=88/102 amd yoy can simplify if asked
